PRINT REVIEWS:
"This disc rages with eight nasty improvised interjections in just under forty minutes; it's a terse, inventive statement brimming with energy and imagination... A fascinating, unexpected pleasure of twisted noise resounding from the slag heap."
Jason Bivins, Signal To Noise (EM1055CD)

"This one is a fantastic and puzzling CD... mysterious clunky, metallic, rubbery and squishy noises squirm around like tiny serpents on a floor of coconut matting... Hard to believe that this range of extremely unusual and unfamiliar sounds is being made simply with one electric guitar and one electric bass... Truly experimental, these musical conversations defy common sense; the duo keep on exploring all the time."
Ed Pinsent, The Sound Projector (EM1055CD)

"The odd name fits well, as its nonsensical semantics and awkward cadence match the duo's bumpy, irregular sound. Using homemade tools to coax noises from repurposed instruments, they produce a thoughtful racket full of scrapes, clangs, blips and cartoonish boings. That last element is key, as without the wry humour, the album's reductionist style could sound dry. Instead, Olive and Nishikawa's cacaphony often suggests Raymond Scott as an improvisor."
Marc Masters, The Wire (EM1055CD)
